The amount you spend on education is only one metric. What your methodology for education (or as Pete used to suggest, awakening the natural curiosity in a child and making it grow so that it's more about establishing a love of learning and less about spoon feeding/teaching) holds has a profound influence upon its effectiveness.
However, with the bulk of families being dual income earners, and a non trivial portion being single parent, the complementary side of education, which has NOTHING to do with schools, gets short changed.
Education is far more than a product, it is a process that includes lots of factors.
The above considered, without adequate funding, the public portion can only do so much.
